Registration for the Forensic Genealogy Institute is Open

Council for the Advancement of Forensic Genealogy is pleased to announce
they will offer two courses at the 2014 Forensic Genealogy Institute at
the Wyndham Love Field Hotel in Dallas, Texas. "Foundations in
Forensic Genealogy" will be held from Monday 24 March through Wednesday 26 March 2014.
Foundations is designed as a basis for the study of forensic
genealogy. It assumes the student has an intermediate or advanced level
of understanding in genealogical research and explores the forensic
genealogy landscape, application of forensic genealogical techniques to
research, and career paths available to forensic genealogists. It is a
prerequisite course of study to the advanced level courses.

"Advanced Forensic Evidence Analysis" will be held from Thursday 27 March through Saturday 29 March 2014.
New in 2014, this year's Advanced program will explore in-depth a
number of applications of forensic genealogy to include the development
and use of DNA in solving forensic genealogy problems, the repatriation
process of military remains presented by the U.S. Department of Defense,
forensic genealogy in mineral rights cases, and forensic document
analysis. These topics, along with others being formulated, will be
"hands on" discussions, case studies, and workshops.

Registration procedures for early application are open to the general
public. Hotel accommodations and further information about the
Institute may be found on the Forensic Genealogy Institute website at http://www.forensicgenealogists.com/forensic-genealogy-institute.html
Persons wishing to attend are encouraged to secure their hotel
reservations now via the hotel link on the website due to sporting and
other events scheduled in the Dallas area.

About Me

I am a professional genealogist who focuses on genealogy education as a coordinator at the Institute of Genealogy and Historical Research at Samford University, and at the Salt Lake Institute of
Genealogy. I served as the administrator of the ProGen
